**4.3 Sources of energy for cooking**

The source of energy varied from one category to another across the three wealth ranks. Nevertheless, fuelwood dominated energy sources in all the three categories, where over 77% of the respondents were using fuelwood for cooking (Table 4), followed by biogas, very few of the respondents were using charcoal. No-one was using electricity for cooking.

The respondents were asked whether they would like to have a biogas facility in their homes or not, and almost all (96%) said yes, they are willing to install biogas facilities.
